Innovative New Year Celebrations

PERHAPS a little earlier than might have been expected, the San Pedro Alcantara council has announced its plans for New Year’s Eve.

There will be three separate areas devoted to different types of music including live performances from artists to be announced in due course as well as an area containing a range of food trucks.

This is the first time that a municipal party of this type will have been held in the area and it is seen as a pioneering concept produced by the council in cooperation with event-company Conciertos y Eventos de Malaga.

According to the Councillor for Youth, Gema Midón this is an exciting experiment which will provide 60 jobs for local residents and local companies will wherever possible be employed to work on a range of different tasks.

There will also be an indirect spin off for local commerce as visitors are likely to spend money in bars and restaurants before the fun starts.

Admission is reserved for those aged 18 or above with a free bar and at least 12 live performances. A special parking area will be established and busses from a number of different points will be laid on.

Tickets initially costing €35 (although this will increase nearer to the date) will be available through post offices in the area and El Corte Ingles from next Monday and it will also be possible to purchase VIP and reserved tables.
